The Airbus A340 is technically one of the safest planes ever built. In over 30 years of service, zero passengers have died in an accident. Yet, airlines retired this engineering masterpiece faster than any other modern jet, sending young planes to the scrapyard. Why?

In this aviation documentary, we explore the tragic story of the Airbus A340. Designed for an era of "4 Engines 4 Long Haul," it was a victim of bad timing, the ETOPS revolution, and the ruthless efficiency of the Boeing 777.

From the underpowered A340-300 "Hairdryers" to the absurdly long A340-600 "Flying Pencil," we uncover why this giant of the skies failed economically despite being loved by passengers. We also look at its miraculous survival stories, including the Air France crash in Toronto and the bizarre wall impact in Toulouse.

Is the era of four-engine giants officially over? Watch to find out.
